AWS GovCloud is having an outage in us-gov-west-1
Looks like AWS' GovCloud West Region is down. We're getting 500 errors, and you know it's serious because the service health dashboard acknowledges it: https://status.aws.amazon.com/govcloud
- jrussino 5y agoI'm a relatively new govcloud user and this is impacting my work today. Does anybody here have a sense of how long outages like this typically take to resolve?
- joncrane 5y agoLike the other poster said, this is the first time I've heard of it, but I've only been using for about 3.5 years. As far as I can tell from some of my automation, the outage started between 1 and 1:15pm Eastern and the outage was "fixed" between 3:15 and 3:30 pm. I say "fixed" because we're still seeing lots of slowness in the API responses.
